Not particularly pertinent to the question but just a quick note... You don't need to write typedef structs in C++ the way you do in C to introduce a new type. Instead you can just write:
struct myData
{
};and it'll do almost the same thing as your typedef (try adding some member functions to see what the difference is).
|

I wonder how many people will catch that hint, so here goes:
The only difference is that the typedef'd struct is unnamed, so you cannot add a constructor or destructor! You could fix that by adding a name explicitely:
typedef struct myData_struct {
...
} myData;
But of course then you wouldn't need the typedef at all since myData would be synonymous to myData_struct.

Absolutely right, but for those of us with K&R hardwired into the brain it's a tough habit to kick.

hi
i am calling the video player exe in my application that will show preview for the user.
now the problems is that i want to disable the child window or window untill this exe run.after completion of preview the window should enable .
Here is my code :
void CPreview::OnpreviewBtnClk()
{
::MessageBox(m_hWnd,_T("here is the preview "),_T("INFORMATION"),MB_ICONINFORMATION);
TCHAR szCmdline[MAX_PATH];
CString szWindowTitle = _T("rs-mplayer");
VERIFY(::GetModuleFileName(AfxGetApp()->m_hInstance, szCmdline, _MAX_PATH));
szCmdline [StrRChr (szCmdline, NULL, _T('\\')) - szCmdline] = _T('\0');
_tcscat_s(szCmdline, _T("\\rs-mplayer.exe /"));
ShellExecute(NULL,_T("open"),szCmdline,NULL,sourceFileName,SW_SHOWNORMAL);
Sleep(500);
CWnd *pOtherWnd = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL, szWindowTitle);
h_Rs_playerProcessId =pOtherWnd;
if (pOtherWnd)
{
MYDATA m_mydata;
wcscpy(m_mydata.m_pName,sourceFileName);
m_mydata.m_bNameLength = (BYTE)sourceFileName.GetLength();
m_mydata.m_ullNodeSize = m_li64FileSize.QuadPart;
COPYDATASTRUCT cpd;
cpd.dwData = 1;
cpd.cbData = sizeof(MYDATA);
cpd.lpData = (void*)&m_mydata;
copyDataResult = pOtherWnd->SendMessage(WM_COPYDATA,
(WPARAM)AfxGetApp()->m_pMainWnd->GetSafeHwnd(),
(LPARAM)&cpd);
}
ProcessID;
<pre><pre>
}
Please reply me soon
got struct from past two days
Best Regards

1. Instead of ShellExecute, use CreateProcess[^]. This will give you a handle to the process in the struct specified for lpProcessInformation.
2. Use EnableWindow[^] to disable whatever you wish to disable.
3. Run a timer with SetTimer[^], e.g. let it run every 5 seconds.
4. In the timer function, use WaitForSingleObject[^] with the handle of the process and a timeout of zero. When this gives you WAIT_OBJECT_0, it means that the process has exited. If it did not, do nothing special.
5. If the process DID exit (you got the event signalled in step 4), then kill the timer with KillTimer[^], use EnableWindow to re-enable what you need and don't forget to close the handles you got in that structure in step 1.
Wouldn't this work for you?

while(pOtherWnd!=0)
{
pOtherWnd = CWnd::FindWindow(NULL, szWindowTitle);
CPreview::EnableWindow(FALSE);
if(pOtherWnd == NULL)
{
CPreview::EnableWindow(TRUE);
break;
}
sleepmode=5000;
Sleep(sleepmode);
}<pre<pre> lang="c++"></
i got the pOtherWnd is handle
i set the timer sleepmode in sleep(sleepmode)
its working fine after some time the window will strat not responding ..
i have added the code with respect to the earlier code which i had posted .
i tried with waitsingleobject by getting the handle og main window even though its not working
help me out this
Best
Regards

Noone said you should use WaitForSingleObject with the window handle, of coure that doesn't work. And your aproach is wrong because while you are running this while loop -i assume you do this in the main GUI thread- your application is not processing any incoming messages, thus it will not respond.

My CMainFrame class derive from CFrameWnd,and create toolbar but can't display tooltips, the problem confuse me for long time.
int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
if (CFrameWnd::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
return -1;
if (!m_wndToolBar.CreateEx(this, TBSTYLE_FLAT, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_TOP
| CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_TOOLTIPS | CBRS_FLYBY | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC) ||
!m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME))
{
TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar\n");
return -1;
}
}

For each button in the toolbar, have you added a string resource with the same ID and added the text after the newline ('\n') character?

Hi,
I have a dialog based application. I have a picture control on a dialog. I am drawing a line in OnMouseMove handler. I want to hande Undo /Redo events on that control. If a user has drawn a line then clicking on Undo button will erase the line and Redo will again draw the same line deleted. I have seen that events handled in a SDI application. But I want to do the same in a dialog based application.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,

a very basic single-step undo/redo scheme is :
get two off-screen images: call them undo and redo.
before every action that can be undone, copy the current image to the 'undo' image, clear the 'redo' image.
to undo: copy the current image to 'redo', copy 'undo' to the current image
to redo: copy the current image to 'undo', copy 'redo' to the current image
to do more steps, you'll need an array or queue of images.

Hi,
Thanx for the reply.
But for this we need to save the image at every instance we modify the image. I was actually looking at Command Design pattern. But I have no idea, how to handle the MouseMove event in case I am using Command design pattern.
if you have any sample code using command design patern with dialog based apps, help will be appreciated.
Can u give me a sample code for the idea you had given. I was doing the same way but still it was difficult with MouseMove handler event to save the images. I was saving two images, when you do any modification on again, I'll copy the third image to second and second to first, but it was hadnling the MouseMove event properly.
Also the reason I want to use command pattern is that I want to Undo/Redo to some specified level, say 10 or 20 level.

or, you can store just the part which was modified. that will reduce memory usage.
this Colorizing edit control[^] has unlimited undo/redo, using something like the command pattern. but text handling is much different from images.

You have to think things over.
The undo is usually the harder thing to do because you need to restore the previous drawing stage.
For example, if you have a "spray-can" tool, the undo of that might be quite difficult without storing the previous bitmap; unless you redraw all the steps from the start (could be fast, could be slow depending on the drawing, but that solution (redrawing every thing) is quite easy to implement.
Saving the bitmap is not incompatible with having a command pattern,
Watched code never compiles.

Well Undo/Redo can be handled in an easier and simpler way. There are complex ways of achieving it like double buffering etc but they seem to work exceptionally well in OpenGL. For simple MFC applications you can follow a simple approach.
Create a (master)list class that stores the objects to be drawn. As and when you create a new object add it to this list. Maintain another Undo and Redo list.
When the user hits on Undo option pop(remove) the last object added from the master list class add this object to your Undo list class. After this re-draw your dialog.
When the user hits on Redo option pop(remove) the last object added from the Undo list class add this object to your Master list class. After this re-draw your dialog.

You didn't pass the handle of the dialog window as first argument to the function (see SetDlgItem[^]).
Veni, vidi, vici.
|
|

|

i'm new in programming, specially in MFC. my understanding of handle is weak. so can you please help me in this regard. means how to pass the handle of dialog window to SetDlgItemText()? any example please.
Regards
Jawad

I already explained this to you in this answer[^]. If you do not understand how to use the Win32 API then you should go to MSDN[^] and spend some time studying the basics. Alternatively get a copy of a book on Windows Programming (Charles Petzold[^] has written some of the best). Trying to learn Windows programming by trial and error, and posting questions in this forum is likely to take you a long time.
